But ... they did NOT sell out - that is incredible. That means there will be some in the next wootoff. :p
[G Tablet General] vincer2d2:
So stoked! Been waiting for tablet prices to drop, and when I heard about this I HAD to jump on it. Can't wait!
[G Tablet General] someone0:
I thought it would have been sold out in a few hours. Maybe the deal was directly from manufacturer that would explain why the discount is so high and the supply seem to be endless. If that's the case, then it's a good job for ViewSonic; knowingly that Xoom wifi is coming out and they have to compete w/ iPad 2, or maybe just want to clear out inventory for a new model. But I think it's a good deal for us and in a way get them in the hand of developers. Maybe people will be talking about it in popular technology podcast. Considering ViewSonic isn't a brand people normally recognize, then if people talking about it, then it's a good marketing strategy also.

Does 3991 have any built in support for the Amazon App Store? It could have been a precursor to that, and would make sense if these units shipped with 3991 or newer.

[G Tablet General] mstevens:
Quite a few Wooters who bought already have a gTablet or some other Android device. Quite a few others are reasonably technologically proficient. Some of us have been XDA-Developers members for a while. It may not be a disaster when those 10,000+ tablets get delivered starting in a couple of weeks.

The scary part, though, was how many messages in the Woot discussion took the form of "what it rooting?" It was asked and answered so many times I lost count. In a way, I find myself hoping those people won't manage to find their way here.

Incredible Timing

My 13yr old bought a nook color with his Christmas/birthday money and we've had a good time trying different roms on it! He settled on one of the froyo builds until more is developed in the HC roms.

That said, I'm PUMPED about picking up this gtab at this price!! Been telling my wife (since we picked up the nook for sonny-boy) I want a tablet and she's been trying to get me to wait til my birthday in May. We received a refund check (from a vehicle I traded in) that she was gonna use to buy it. We were talking about said check and tablet last night when I LUCKILY stumbled across a thread stating the g-tab was on woot. Just before she drifted off to sleep I told her it was on for $100 off all the linked prices I'd been emailing her. I hope she remembers that she mumbled "better go ahead and buy it then" before she sacked out! LOL

Rooted AND bootloader unlocked from factory. This should be fun!
[G Tablet General] bso44:
Wait...what? Did I miss something?
[G Tablet General] Citi:
I believe he means it is quite easy to Root and Unlock it from the factory settings, no special commands or functions. Tap Z4Root and your, well rooted.

I will hopefully have a ROM on it within 20 mins on picking it up (depending on firmware).
[G Tablet General] Butch1326:
No, but it's easy to install with an Amazon account. Amazon will send you an email with a link to install the Amazon app store. I got the free download for Angry Birds Rio. Very easy to install and setup.

BTW - Angry Birds Rio, very cool :-)

Somebody should make a .zip that makes the phone show S-ON even while it's still rooted. That way if you go to a sprint dealer they can't verify that it is rooted if that is the way they check...

lol
[EVO Shift 4G General] mcarrion78:
just use the stock ruu and you should be good to go
[EVO Shift 4G General] popasmurfn23:
Well I'm pretty sure if your on a custom rom u would have more work to do because of certain files but I think even if u covered ur tracks they prob have some soft when they hook up your they can trace everything you've done on it unless they had a reason to it would be invasion of privacy but anyways.
[EVO Shift 4G General] popasmurfn23:
All they would do is install a app that requires root access and poof your cover is blown son
[EVO Shift 4G General] popasmurfn23:
I learned something new today thanks buddy.
[EVO Shift 4G General] SHMaRiM:
I honestly don't think that would try installing apps that require root access. I could see them booting the phone into bootloader though to check if it has either s-off or s-on...

But I agree that they may have software that they run the phone by. But again, software is unnecessary when they can just go to the bootloader.
[EVO Shift 4G General] alher591:
Does sprint even check if its rooted??? Do they even know what it is???. I exchanged my evo shift and didn't even think about unrooting it and they still took it. Though I'm sure they didn't check
[EVO Shift 4G General] popasmurfn23:
I think the tecs got to look at sooner or later seeing how its being returned as a faulty device. Maybe someone that works for sprint can chime in and give us a run down for squirts and giggles.
[EVO Shift 4G General] wireless.praying.mantis:
Be thankful...

Be thankful your rooted HTC EVO Shift 4G didn't make it into the Sprint retail store where I work because if your device had ended up in my hands, your account would be red flagged with the fact your HTC EVO Shift 4G had been rooted and all service and repair work would have to be conducted through HTC as our M&Ps pertaining to rooted smartphones regardless of what OS platform is installed states the warranty of such device would be rejected through the S&R channel and would need to have the customer referred to the smartphone's manufacturer for all service and repair. I have already sent an e mail to all the S&R technicians within my market on how to check Android OS devices for whether or not rooting had been performed. From my understanding, once the S-On is triggered to S-Of, S-On is not possible to be restored even if RUU is done.

The Cape Girardeau location will RUU your phone for you when you send it in and put a rom back on the replacement or yours when it comes back. Great tech guy.

[EVO Shift 4G General] danaff37:
If you followed the rooting instructions here, s-off isn't permanent - it's only s-off because of an engineering spl which is replaced when ruu'ing. Run an ruu on this phone and no one can tell what was done previously to the phone I promise you (unless you leave your sdcard... Lol). All partitions are re wrote in an ruu with image files, so the entire partition is written over, not just the file table changed, so it would be extremely difficult and require very expensive hardware to try and pull any old data if it was at all possible (which is debatable on NAND storage anyways)
[EVO Shift 4G General] wireless.praying.mantis:
Our HTC representative on his last visit gave me a flash drive preloaded with software tools the actual HTC S&R technicians use for flashing the various HTC devices. One tool can temporarily turn the S back to the ON position, but upon a hard/soft reset, the S reverts back to Off. If a Sprint S&R techicians was doing their job right by the company, they would abide by the M&Ps pertaining to rooted devices because a customer rooting their device voids their 1 year warranty regarding issue resolution through the retail channel.
[EVO Shift 4G General] danaff37:
but our s-off isn't at the radio level like on an evo or regaw's hero s-off. Ours is at the spl level. Very easily overwritten. That's what I'm trying to say.

Those who root their HTC EVO Shift 4G

All I'm saying people is if you root your HTC EVO Shift 4G or any other smartphone for that matter and have issues with it after rooting, don't waste our S&R technicians' time for what you've done to your smartphone and just deal with the manufacturer of your smartphone. Why should we take care of an issue you're experiencing when the issue very well may be the result of you rooting your device? If you OC a stock VGC for your home PC, do you really expect the VGC manufactuer to replace it for OCing the VGC from its stock speed if you have issues with it? I'm sure there are quite a few Sprint employees here at xda-developers who share my view. Some people just shouldn't eat an extra two scoops of Dumb Butt for breakfast. Makes me wonder how some people function on a day to day basis.

[EVO Shift 4G General] wireless.praying.mantis:
You do realize we do have a few S&R technicians who have the HTC software tools which is able to read information from the current HTC line up of devices as well as the three upcoming ones over this summer to see if your device has ever been rooted. Trust me, you can't beat the system. Right after my first post a few days ago pertaining to smartphone rooting, I sent a copy (with the approval of Sprint and HTC management) of the HTC software tools to every S&R retail store in our region. BTW, if my memory serves me correct, the last time I checked, ****, is one of the various names associated with Richard, which is my name as well as that of my father and grandpa too.
[EVO Shift 4G General] strapped365:
I feel thats invasion of privacy what files I have or may not have on my device is my personal information and without permission you can't look at that kinda stuff its like going through my mail
[EVO Shift 4G General] wireless.praying.mantis:
The information read by the HTC software tools is that pertaining to the OS firmware, hardware, and software, not customer information on the memory card or stored in the device strapped365. BTW, I hate to say it, but you'd be suprised how many S&R technicians do snoop through information stored on a customer's device and memory card. Unless you sit there and actually watch the S&R technician do the work on your smartphone, you will never know. Yes, CPNI violation is grounds for disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment for any Sprint employee, not just S&R technicians.
[EVO Shift 4G General] popasmurfn23:
I'm sorry what's that I hear..hmm..close our sprint repair stores and let manufactures take over? That's all I heard. Ja ja can't live with them and can't live with out them huh.
[EVO Shift 4G General] popasmurfn23:
HTC is HTC, Sprint is Sprint, both totally seperate entities so why would they even think about creating such a hostile enviroment over who gets to fix what because someone is rooted and they can tell through some super cool pervert wireless system, speaking of system they are not the FCC and niether is sprint so what's the point if you couldn't hold that information against me????
[EVO Shift 4G General] popasmurfn23:
Dude if a 10 year old can make a app and upload it to the market and have his app request system information from your phone prior to installing I'm pretty sure those perverts over at HTC multi million dollar company can do some crazy stuff. Do you think there just waiting for Obamas Approval???
[EVO Shift 4G General] popasmurfn23:
If they allowed such information to be shared so freely do you know how many dirty scum polititians would be arrested prob a lot hence if they don't allow it they can never be brought to light. U have to see the big picture man. K I'm done preaching. I'm out.

Does anyone else hear a echo in this thread hello ello ello llo llo lo lo o o o....
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
Umm... yeah, ****. I've dealt with my local S&R techs, ****. I'm not AT ALL worried, ****. I wouldn't trust those chuckleheads to get my BigMac order straight, ****. Much less be able to tell if my Shift's been rooted previously. ****.

Of course, I don't take my phones in. If it's something that can be fixed my good friends here at XDA are more than capable of diagnosing and fixing the problem. All your S&R techs can do is hard reset and then tell me I need a refurb. And if it's something that can't be fixed then I send my phone into Assurion in tiny, unbootable pieces and pay my $100 deductible :)

[EVO Shift 4G General] pengkha:
so, how are you going to say that an HTC rep can turn the "S back to ON" and say that it was previously rooted? it doesn't make sense that it would prove anything cause the stupid rep turned it on...not me.
[EVO Shift 4G General] wireless.praying.mantis:
I apologize. I meant to say one of the HTC software tools can turn the S to Off temporarily until a soft/hard reboot at which point the S will revert to On, similar to using ZRoot and/or VISIONary +.
[EVO Shift 4G General] JKILO:
Only I can turn s-on
[EVO Shift 4G General] finalhit:
I took my rooted-then-ruud shift to a sprint store to get a broken volume rocker fixed. I expected to pay the $35 to get it fix, and be SOL if they can't since I don't have insurance.

Much to my surprise, they decided to replace my phone for the same $35. I was expecting to get a refurb...and again to my surprise...I got a brand new one (at least according to the tech).

I did waste another $20 to replace my phantom skinz.

Long story short, they weren't able to detect that my phone was rooted.

I realize this is a small unrepresentative sample...but still, if that easy to chech...why not do it every phone they decide to replace?

It seems to me that I beat the system

[EVO Shift 4G General] johnjjschmidt:
I think a lot of you are being too harsh. I also believe that what mantis is trying to say is that if you do something to your phone that voids your warranty then be prepared for possible refusal to be taken care of. He was merely giving a heads up and each and every one of you can do what you will with it. In essence, fix your phone before taking it out for service or what have you. What, people aren't allowed to do their jobs any more?

Reseat your stylus.

I had the same prob come up. I had the auto brightness 'on' since I had this rom. I turned it 'off' and set the brightness to 30%. Then the problem started happening. I turned the auto back 'on'. Didn't work. Turned auto 'off' and set bright to 100%. Didn't work. Turned auto back 'on'. Started pressing sleep button repeatedly while slipping out the stylus.

All the steps were done with soft resetting the phone following the auto 'on'/'off'.

Found this out by accident.

Same rom as you too.

Thank you all for answer
[HTC Aria General] taliesin1077:
Search is not working on either IE or FF for me right now, so I'm starting a new thread. Sorry about it, as i'm sure this is a duplicate question. Know that I tried for awhile to search first.

I've got an Aria running Attn1's Liberated FR008 ROM. a2sd has been enabled. However, I've got almost no phone memory left. I've heard that even with a2sd, some of the app dalvik stuff is stored on the entirely insufficient internal phone storage, and I have recently downloaded a bunch more apps. I have used CacheCleaner NG, which did not alleviate the problem. I have also "cleaned up" the Dalvik Cache using Titanium Backup, which found nothing to clean.

I'm wondering if there's some sort of area on the internal phone memory I can clean myself using Astro or something, because it seems that with most of the bulk of app storage being on the SD card, and every app with options to store cache on the SD card doing so, I should have more room on the internal storage.

What do you guys think? Have any of you run into this problem and resolved it without just uninstalling a bunch of apps?
[HTC Aria General] DougG_ATL:
Great question. I've considered a complete clean install, just to regain some internal space.

I wish ****ing Facebook would add an option to cache to SD card - it's a total hog. Going to endure with the Aria until fall and see what's out on AT&T at that point.
[HTC Aria General] TNPaparazzi:
I know app2sd from the market has worked for me in the past. I had a ton of apps on my aria and haven't had a space issue
